Need to get some more greens in this week? Try this lemon and avocado salad!

Sometimes, we just need a midweek boost of energy and healthiness. We start off our Monday’s with the nest of intentions and by Wednesday evening have crashed and burned with chocolate and a Chinese on the sofa – it’s happened to the best of us.

The key is not to give in to the idea that you’ve had a ‘bad week’. Food is neither good nor bad – it simply offers your more or less nutrition. Just because you’ve had one low nutrition meal doesn’t mean the week has to continue that way! Check out this powerhouse – and totally delicious – chickpea and avocado salad to boost up your veggie intake and kick the rest off the week off to a great start!
